Re: [Everything doTERRA] Migraine

I am so sorry to hear about the migraines! They are miserable...

What has helped me is using Solace at the beginning of PMS symptoms (about 4-7 days before my period starts). I just run it from ovary to ovary and across my lower back and then rub in. Also, I will sometimes put it on my ankles, on my wrists, or on the back of my neck. I sort of alternate these wherever it "feels right" to put it.

If I do get a migraine, I mix 3 drops of frank, 3 drops of lavender, and 3 drops of peppermint together in my hand and rub it on my scalp, my neck, and sometimes behind my knees and on the bottom of my feet. If I am also feeling clogged in my sinus area, I will inhale the peppermint oil from the palm of my hand until I feel my sinuses open up. I lay down in a cool, dark room if possible and keep a large cup of water by my bedside to drink. Lots of water!! I also try to do deep breathing or meditation which has also been a blessing and helps the episode subside. I wait 15-30 minutes and repeat again if I start to feel the pain.

I sometimes have to rely on my prescription meds or Excedrine Migraine to supplement, but I really feel like the oils help those to work faster and better. 

I also take the LLV and have done the GX cleanse a couple of times now followed by the PB Assist. I have come a long way...from 15 migraines a month to 1-2 tops now!! I have made some dietary changes, but working with doTERRA has made all the difference in the world! 

Best wishes on finding what works for your friend!!

For me the normal migraine remedies didn't work during my menses.  I used Solace liberally on the back of my neck repeated often and my menstrual migraines abated.

I use Majoram on the back of my neck at the first feelings of one. Then past tense, deep blue and peppermint as needed. I use cold rice bags all over my head. I have those same migraines and they are nasty! But I am finally free from the puking after finding doTERRA! There have been 2 in the last year that I have had to take an Advil for but I did this after using the oils. The oils made the Advil work faster and better. If you catch it early enough you may not need the Advil. But rest and darkness is a must! Noise and light will only make it grow larger. No Soda Pop and use digest zen and solace and peppermint over her abdomen. Sometimes I do have to use them all one after another. Good luck!
